Chapter 2:
Chaos
Morning came and Willow woke up completely rested from a night of patrolling with the gang. She yawned and readily got up to do her morning activities to get ready for school. She was looking out the window at the red sun rising, when she saw something flying at her window. She thought it was a bird and looked at it confusingly; but then when it kept coming, she ducked. It crashed through her window breaking it into a million pieces. She stood up looking at the catastrophe that had just happened to her window, she saw what broke it was a box, a small wooden box. She picked it up, looking at it; it looked old, very old. She immediately got ready for school and rushed out the door, forgetting to lock the door.
She ran into the library in complete excitement. "Giles, look at what came flying through my window this morning!" she said..
"My God, where did this come from?"
"I don't know! But all I know is that it's the Box of Versae!"
"Yes, indeed it is.", he said picking it up and examining it thoroughly, " It's said to have the power within to be able to-", he was interrupted.
"Giles, I know what it can do!"
"Oh, yes, sorry."
Suddenly the library doors came flying open as Buffy came in swiftly carrying a big bundle. She stopped right at the table and dropped it on top. It was a demon body wrapped in cloth; neither Giles nor Willow knew what it was. "We've got a major problem. The Master is back and he brought these. things. with him."
"What are you talking about?! We killed him and saw him die; you crushed his bones to a crisp!" Xander said upset. "I saw it with my own two eyes."
"Well, he's back, alive and well."
"Impossible." Giles said. "Only one person who would be able to do that is presumed dead."
"Well, they're dead now." Buffy said with a small smirk.
"You didn't . did you?" Giles asked half frightened.
"NO! She died on her own."
"That's good. But are you SURE it was The Master?" Giles asked.
"I saw him with my own eyes Giles, of course I'm sure!"
"What did you do?"
"It's kind of weird. He said Hello, and then my attention was diverted by this. creature. When I looked back up after killing it, he was gone."
"Well, something fishy is going on. There's no way that The Master can be alive." Willow said.
Suddenly they heard something rustling in the back with the books. Then books and papers flew everywhere as something emerged in a black cloud. Xander and Willow ran close to Buffy and Giles as they were scared out of their minds.
"What the hell is happening!?" Xander yelled.
They all watched in terror as a tall figure came out of the smoke. Xander saw its feet and started looking up slowly. He saw discolored pieces of skin mixed in with metal and scars. "Adam?"
